Restoring from Tape

[skeeter_2012]

Hello  -   I have files that i have backed up directly to tape (not on disk) and I am trying to restore.  I have seen no function to restore directly from tape.  How do I achieve this?   again, just trying to restore files that are on tape but not on disk.

thank you in advance for your help.

File restore from tape is done the same way it is done from disk. Open the restore selection, select the file you want to restore and run the restore. it will restore the content to thr original location. If you want to restore to a different location then use file redirection option.

Thanks
